Awesome, awesome, awesome!

Thank you for this :)

Thank you immensely for this allegory. I have had a struggle wanting the end table now. But I had not idea how to be patient and enjoy the process. This summer I built a deck all by myself. I mean right from the planning stage to the actual cutting and assembling and putting the finishing touches on it. I had never though of my goal to recreate and sculpt my body as a process such as this I understand so much more. If I can build a deck I can do this.

Thank you so much

Mike's articles are always great; but this is article on goals taught me more than all the things I have read before - which have been numerous. What a great way to get the points across. This goes to the top of my "favorites" list. In fact, I am going to print it and put it where I can refer to it often - along with my own goal list.

What a clever analogy! I wonder if someone really made that coffee table or just used it for an example, however, it was perfect! I like to cross-stitch and it certainly fits the model. Wonderful article!

I loved this article! It was interesting that it was about a coffee table but can be applied to anything in life.

This article is well thought out and absolutely the truth. We plan our shopping, our dates, our weddings, our baby showers, our birthdays, and this is a reminder that our health is one of the most important to plan out for now and the future.
